A while ago, we got a sneak peek on set with Rory McIlroy and Wayne Rooney filming their first commercial for Nike Football together. Growing up in Northern Ireland, Rory is a die-hard Manchester United fan. He’s already filmed a commercial with his childhood idol, Tiger Woods, and now, he has filmed a commercial and kicked around a soccer ball with Manchester United star, Wayne Rooney!
In the commercial, Wayne Rooney surprises Rory McIlroy at the first tee by bringing out the new Nike Ordem Football (Footgolf anyone?)! The football was inspired by golf ball design and has unrivaled flight control through aerodynamic grooves. And football legend from Brazil, Ronaldo, even makes a cameo! Very cool! Be sure to take a look at the Nike Football behind the scenes video below as well – you’ll get to see Wayne and Rory in between scenes in a crossbar challenge!
